dr0bz Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Some help with my issue would be highly HIGHLY appreciated. Working on second hackintosh install. Had it up and running (10.5.6 via iPC) until I upgraded the gpu from on board to 9500gt 1gb. Searched forums for how to accomplish getting the card to work and saw a topic on how to use uInstaller to add an efi string. Did as instructed, rebooted. OS X loaded with correct resolution, but nothing appeared on the screen except for the dock and toolbar, neither of which were responding to clicks / interaction. Allowed time for it to load, but nothing occurred so I performed a hard shut down. Upon powering tower on, the system hangs on the motherboard screen and will nothing will load. Attempting to go to bios yields nothing, nor can I select where to boot from. The system is completely unresponsive, and I'm worried I have ruined everything. Tried swapping hdd but did not work. Currently begging for assistance via iPad. Please help!!! UPDATE: false alarm apparently!! After driving me literally crazy, it decided to begin booting again. Now to reinstall, hopefully correctly this time. I will be taking my noobyness elsewhere, thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.B Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 for anyone else looking for an answer, i just had to install nvenabler64.kext for the card in signature, it has no QE/CI but video playback is still very good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
